Don't be fooled-- no real Miller here!

"This cd is one of dozens recorded after the demise the the great Glenn Miller, strictly trying to cash in on the Miller name. The musicianship is poor, and most of the tunes recorded herein are published "stock" arrangements that merely hint at the Miller style. Like most cd rip-offs of this nature, the tunes are primarily those of no copyright restriction, or "public domain" tunes as they are referred to: An obvious attempt to avoid paying royalties to the publishers or composers. Although included here are a few actual titles that Miller recorded, they are not played as Miller played them (different and inferior arrangements), and the remainder of the tunes are classical melodies done-up in a "faux Miller" style. Don't support this lackluster effort by purchasing this cd-- purchase the original Miller recordings. Or if you do purchase this cd, you might find it comes in handy for a coffe table coaster!"
